Sausage Pasta with Vegetables

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min. YIELD: 4 servings.
I made this for our pastor one night. He loved it so much we nicknamed it “Jason’s Pasta.” It’s a sneaky way to get our kids to eat more veggies. —Suzie Foutty Mansfield, Ohio

Ingredients

  • 2 cups uncooked whole wheat penne pasta
  • 1 pound Italian turkey sausage links, casings removed

  • 6 ounces fresh baby spinach (about 8 cups)
